Using the Default Schedule
The default schedule is designed to provide enough daily turnover to service a typical pool. See
Table 2
for default
schedule.
Table 2: Default Schedule.
SPEED 1 is set to begin at 8:00am and run at 3000 RPM for a duration of 2 hours. When SPEED 1 is complete the
pump immediately begins running the default SPEED 2. SPEED 2 is factory default to 1500 RPM and will last for 10
hours. When SPEED 2 has completed its run the pump will run SPEED 3 at 2500 RPM for a duration of two hours.
When SPEED 3 has completed its run the pump will run SPEED 4 at 1000 RPM for a duration of four hours.
After 18 hours of run time and completing its run of SPEED 4, the pump will enter a stationary/paused state for the next
6 hours. The pump will restart at 8:00am the next morning and cycle through the default schedule again. The pump will
continue to run in this in this manner until a custom schedule is programmed into the drive by the user.
NOTICE:
The
Start/Stop
button must be pressed, and the LED lit, for the pump to run.
Custom Schedules and Quick Clean
To customize the run schedule for your Variable Speed Pump, the pump must be stopped. Be sure that the
Start/Stop
button LED is not illuminated.
Programming a Custom Schedule:
NOTICE:
When programming, the LED light next to the parameter (“Speed”, “Time” and “Duration”) you are
setting will blink.
1. Stop the pump if it is running by pressing the
Start/Stop
button.
2. Press the
“1”
button. The LED above the selected SPEED will begin to blink and the “Speed” parameter LED will
blink while editing. See
Figure 7.
The installer should set the priming speed to be sufficient for priming the pump from a fresh install,but not so fast that there is a
substantial waste of energy. The time the pump needs to achieve prime can change based on local environmental conditions
such as water temperature, atmospheric pressure, and your pool’s water level. All of these things should be taken into
consideration when setting the priming speed, however in most cases the pump will not need to run at 3450 RPM to
successfully prime itself.
Please test and verify chosen priming speeds more than once, letting the water drain from the system in between each test.
Turn on pump and switch to Manual mode to test Priming by operating SPEED1.Take note of the time that the water filled the
PUMP HOUSING, then stop the pump. Re-start the pump to set the SPEED1/Priming duration.
